The right iPhone 15 accessories should offer protection, work reliably and suit your everyday routine. In practice, however, poor purchases are often caused not by a lack of choice, but by unclear compatibility information. For example, a case for the iPhone 15 will not automatically fit the iPhone 15 Pro. A transparent iPhone 15 case may also discolour over time, while seemingly robust tempered glass can affect touch control if fitted incorrectly.
The iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max differ in dimensions, camera layout and button positions. An iPhone 15 protective case is therefore not suitable for every model. Before buying, check the exact model designation and screen size.
This is particularly important for cases with raised camera bezels or an integrated stand. The cut-outs must line up precisely. A case that is too tight can make the buttons difficult to press, while a loose fit reduces protection in the event of a drop.
A standard case may support wireless charging without having a magnetic ring. If you want to use a MagSafe charger, mount or card wallet, you need a case explicitly described as MagSafe-compatible. This also applies to a MagSafe case for the iPhone 15.
With a transparent iPhone 15 case, you should also check whether the magnetic ring is actually integrated. Transparency alone says nothing about magnetic attachment.
A power bank with a high stated capacity is not automatically lightweight or suitable for travel. As well as mAh, you should consider the energy rating in Wh, the weight, USB-C output and number of ports. For screen protectors, a hardness rating such as 9H is primarily an indication of scratch resistance. It is not a guarantee against screen breakage in every impact.
Look out for the following:
For an iPhone 15 screen protector, coverage, edge design and installation aids are particularly important. A 2.5D edge can help reduce chipping around the edges. An oleophobic coating can make fingerprints less noticeable, but it will not prevent them completely.
An iPhone 15 tempered glass screen protector with an installation frame makes it easier to align the protector correctly. Dust, grease and fibres must be removed completely before application. An iPhone 15 privacy screen protector restricts visibility from the sides. This can be useful on trains, in cafés or at the office, but depending on the viewing angle it also reduces the visible display area.
The iPhone 15 uses USB-C. A USB-C power bank should therefore have a suitable USB-C output and compatible cable. The following specifications are important when choosing one:
A power bank with 90 Wh may be relevant for air travel. Even so, you should check the airline’s specific requirements before departure. For short journeys, a compact magnetic power bank is often sufficient; for a laptop, smartphone and other devices, a larger model is more suitable.
Why this product suits this profile: This slim, clear case is designed for users who want to show off their device’s colour while looking for reliable everyday protection.
The product details specify the compatible iPhone 15 model, TPU and PC materials, as well as precise cut-outs. However, this version is not listed as MagSafe-compatible.
Low weight of 28,35 g, a clear PC back and flexible TPU edges.
Why this product suits this profile: Suitable for users who want to combine protection and a visible design with the use of MagSafe chargers or mounts.
The integrated N52H magnetic ring is explicitly designed for MagSafe accessories. This prevents it being confused with a case that only supports wireless charging.
TPU and PC construction, Air Cushion corner protection and stated MagSafe compatibility.
Why this product suits this profile: Designed for frequent travellers, mobile professionals and content creators who want to power USB-C laptops or several devices as well as their iPhone 15.
As well as 25.000 mAh, the specifications state 90 Wh, three USB-C ports, one USB-A port and integrated USB-C cables. This makes it easier to assess the capacity and connection options.
Up to 170 W total output, a weight of 580 g and integrated cables with up to 100 W output according to the product details.
Why this product suits this profile: The privacy version is intended for users who want to make their display less visible from the side on public transport, at the office or in cafés.
The pack contains two protectors and an installation aid. This reduces the risk of misalignment or an unsuccessful first application.
Two pieces, a stated 9H hardness rating, privacy filter and case-friendly design according to the product description.
A magnetic SSD with a USB-C connection may be useful for video recording. According to the product description, the DigiEra 1TB Magnetic Portable SSD is intended for iPhone 15 Pro models and designed for external storage. Before buying, however, check the recording format, required data rate and actual USB-C compatibility.
An AR headset for iPhone can project the smartphone display into a larger virtual view for films, games or mobile work. Models such as the RayNeo Air 4 Pro or VITURE Pro 2 require a compatible USB-C video signal. Not every iPhone accessory with USB-C automatically transfers image data; this function must be explicitly stated.
We have put together a complete, regularly updated list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the safety regulations applicable in the EU.
A case should be explicitly listed for the iPhone 15, rather than simply for a similarly sized Apple model. The iPhone 15 Pro requires its own case, as the shape of the body, camera area and button positions may differ.
No. Check whether the glass is described as case-friendly or suitable for the case you want to use. A screen protector that is too wide may be pressed at the edges and start to lift.
A compact USB-C power bank is usually sufficient for normal daily use. If you also charge a tablet or laptop, compare the output, ports, weight and Wh rating. A magnetic power bank is particularly convenient when wireless charging and compact dimensions matter more than a high capacity.
